Summary of Contents: A treatise on understanding calendars which was written by Khātūn'ābādī upon his friends' request while on a pilgrimage to Karbalā, presented in an introduction and ten chapters, and completed late in Rabīʿ al-avval 1126 AH. Āqā Buzurg has pointed out to this treatise in Al-Zarīʿah (21/250), having written that the author has two works on this topic of which the second in Persian has eight chapters selected from the same work. However, in this treatise Khātūn'ābādī refers to his other books where he has dealt with this topic in more details, hence implying he has other, more comprehensive works on this topic apart from this treatise.
